When we deplete our various fossil fuels is rather moot anyway, since that won't save us from climate change. We have more than enough left in the ground to spell real trouble if we dig them all up and burn them. One estimate is that our fossil fuels would emit 2.5 trillion tons of CO₂e, if all of them were burned. That’s 1,470 CO₂e from coal, 530 CO₂e from oil, and 520 CO₂e from gas -- way more than we can allow because of climate change.
